Heterocyclization of 2-acyl-3-indolylacetic acids using hydrazine. Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-5-R1-1H-[1,2]diazepino[4,5-b]indoles

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

The heterocyclization of 2-acetyl-3-indolylacetic acid hydrazones and its amides, in contrast to similar derivatives of phenylacetic acid, does not lead to 2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-5-R1-1H-[1,2]diazepino-[4,5-b]indoles but rather to 2-aminoindolo[2,3-c]pyridin-3(2H)-one or azines of 2-acetyl-3-indolyl-acetic acid. 2,3-Dihydro-2-oxo-5-R1-1H-[1,2]diazepino[4,5-b]indoles were obtained by the reaction of 1-alkylaminoacetylindolo[2,3-c]pyrilium perchlorates and of methyl esters of 2-acetyl- and 2-propionyl-3-indolylacetic acid with hydrazine hydrate.
